The blank refers to the state of mind shared among those to whom short-term fixes are convenient. Aestheticism refers to design so is unrelated to the subject of this passage. Myopia works because someone who is myopic is narrow-minded, which makes sense in this sentence. Skepticism is not the best choice because it is not closely related to a preference of short-term fixes. Inventiveness and paranoia do not work in this sentence for similar reasons. B

why cant the answer be C - skepticism ?
"refused to consider a complete overhaul" can be considered as being skeptic !
Can someone please provide more explaination and reasoning between the answer choices B n C ?
